In order to make sure that your WebQuest stays aligned with your unit, you will need to copy and paste 3 things from your Stages 1 and 2 from Dr. Grace's wiki onto this page. (This will also help Dr. Theresa give you better feedback on your Intro, Task, and Conclusion.) Then you will write your first drafts of your Introduction and Conclusion.
G.R.A.S.P.S
( Feel free to copy and paste what you have on your wiki page for Dr. Grace for the GRASPS portion of your unit (Stage 2). Note that you don't need the Standards part, though you can include it if you want.)
Goal
You are to show the best vacation based on price for each package.
Role
You are an analyst for Orbitz.com
Audience
You need to convince the board to use your advertisement by clients to travel with the most inexpensive way.
Situation
The challenge involves dealing with time constraints and different modes of transportation.
Product & Performance
You will create an advertisement with a digital advertising tool (Glogster, iMovie).
Understanding(s)
• ...they need to solve equations in order to use them. • ...solved equations can be graphed. • ...functions are often relative to one another and can be found in everyday situations.
Introduction
The concept of linear equations is one the most important to learn. These equations, and their graphs, show the relationship between two variables. These variables can vary from an individuals age and the amount of allowance they recieve, to hours practicing throwing a frisbee and number of completed passes.
Linear equations visual representations can tell a lot about a situation as well.
Using a linear equation and its graph to solve problems can be especially useful. This WebQuest will enlighten you in the use of linear equations and how they can assist with predicting how one can save money while on vacation.
Task
You are an analyst at Orbitz who has been asked by your boss to find the best vacation spot. Out of Los Angeles, New York City, & Chicago, you have to convince the board the best place to go based on mathematical reasoning for price. You are to consider the different modes of transportation (car, train, plan), and work them into your mathematics. Buy creating a digital advertisement for Orbitz, you are to show possible clientele the reasoning behind your good prices. Pitch the advertisement to the board of Orbitz.com, and they may just use it in their next big commercial. You must find deals for client A, who has 2 weeks off, client B, who has 5 days off, and client C, who has 1 week off. They are all traveling out of Denver, CO. Use your advertisement to show which city would be the most suitable for each client to travel to, and their mode of travel.
Conclusion
Dear Valued Employee,
We, have received your mock advertisement and are considering your proposal. How linear equations can determine the least expensive travel scenarios for our client is important to us, as it is our duty to provide them with the best deal possible. Your mathematical reasoning and understanding of costs of a vacation represented in graph from can help prove we are the best travel agency to do our business with.
The board appreciates you time and skills put into the product. You should hear from us within the next couple weeks with our evaluation of your work. Pleaseremember to keep your eyes peeled for other examples of linear equations for other possible ventures we may able to seek our future.
Thank you, as appreciate your efforts and hard work. You are what makes Orbitz the companty that holds the reputation it has.
